New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM
So ya wanna hear what dumb assed thing I did yesterday? Was working up some 300BLK sub-sonic loads and then switched to my 6.5 SAUM rifle/loads. Shot up all my paper targets that I had stapled at the time and needed to shoot a couple of more rounds that I needed to finish my chrono work. So I...- Fongman

Care And Feeding Of A GAP 6.5 SAUM.....
I'll post the full load in the load thread once I'm convinced it's my go to. Need to shoot some more of them to be sure and then take them to distance... I only have the 130 H VLD's at this point. 63 gr of H1000 w/ Rem brass and Fed 215m primers. The seating depth I think that works is 2.855...- Fongman

Care And Feeding Of A GAP 6.5 SAUM.....
On my first batch I FL resized/sized necks before turning the necks (and into the shoulder.) Not done on the second firing - so dimensionally it was different. I can say with certainty that the run-out on the second batch was 6 - 8 thousands better, with the second batch running on average 2 -3...- Fongman

Care And Feeding Of A GAP 6.5 SAUM.....
First 50 rounds I was just trying to break in and start zoning in on a load. With the second batch I think I found my load: (5 shots at 100) First groups were running .75 to 1 moa on average - had a couple go bigger. But the second batch with the fire formed brass was grouping half the...- Fongman

Care And Feeding Of A GAP 6.5 SAUM.....
No expert here by any means. I didn't turn that far into my shoulders, but did see some unevenness on my brass. After shooting them the first time it all seems to even out when fire formed. Run-out was much better as were the group sizes during my second firing as well. FYI.- Fongman

Care And Feeding Of A GAP 6.5 SAUM.....
I think you have a good handle on it. One thing that seems to becoming evident is the need for the slightly larger Tula LR Magnum primers. It seems the primer pockets in all the brass are going south by the 6th loading. When it takes this much work to get the brass right, 20 loadings vs 6 is a...- Fongman

New GAP Extreme Hunter in 6.5 SAUM
I remember wondering that and ran some numbers, don't have access to them at the moment, but from what I remember - even though a lot of environmentals go into that equation, I think it was 1600yds+ on an average day. Hope that's about right...- Fongman
